lap 95 8.2 back all over the 43 though (kinda holding him up) even looked to outside lap 100 8.1 back lap 101 p17 the 47 goes by while ryan stuck behind the 43 need the track bar 13.5 for center but need it 12.5 for exit lap 105 9.1 back , p19 the 2 goes by yellow spins top ryan - I think we need to keep getting wedge in it went in p18 comes out p18 12.2 stop (much better) now showing p17 lap 117 going green stage ends on lap 130 lap 118 p16 lap 121 3.7 back 88 spins lap 123 Luke says 4 tires & fuel. Only reason to do that is if he plans on not pitting at the stage. I think he should stay out personally. ryan sitting p15 right now 5, 31 & 20 are the only cars pitting hope luke has a different strategy & not just waste a set of tires for a handful of laps Ryan now p21 after the pitstop lap 127 green lap 128 p20 lap 129 p21 yellow lap 130 ryan p21 truex wins stage one
So ryan has 3 green flag laps on his car. Will he stay out & try for some track position?

So luckily only 17 cars on lead lap 18 with the LD, so he wont lose to many spots but will start behind all the lapped cars. Need a quick yellow, but with his luck wont happen. Ryan gonna come in & take tape off of right front rotor ducts (melted bead) good year thinks it wasn't a melted bead, but got cut by something. temps make seem it wasn't a melted bead either ryan we have to drop back right Jason? ..... they haven't said that yet one to go & yes we will have to drop back (Last week they screwed the pooch a bunch on those rulings, was hoping they would screw up again this week for ryan ) lap 273 green ryan trying to pass lapped cars on outside p18 last car on lead lap ryan following the 22 & we know he can make a hole to drive behind lap 277 spotter says talking about debris in 2 yellow lap 278 just what ryan needed!!! Ryan calling out to do Phoenix luke says 4 tires ryan comes out p18 but now can start with the leaders

going green on lap 283 42 got the LD 23 didn't get out of way so ryan was stuck behind lapped cars anyways ryan didn't even get close to the leaders thanks to some dumbass lapped cars blocking from getting by wreck ryan gets through. P17 on lap 289 43 either almost got in the rear or barely got into ryan Ryan stayed out lap 291 still under yellow now p11 let the 10 go by as LD (I thought it was the 43) going green on lap 294 Ryan p11 to start

p12 when he finally could get down lap 401 lap 406 yellow turn 3 32 car 47 pitting so that puts ryan p11 so he can start on inside Ryan - if for some reason if we do come in again, I could use a piece of tape bud. 10-4 lap 414 going green p11 lap 415 p12 in line yellow lap 418 Danica & Denny Well 3 of my 4 fantasy teams have been wrecked today. Bowyer is the only one left Schmoopy Curse at its best LOL showing ryan p10 right now after some leaders pitted, ryan stayed out going green lap 426 p10 lap 427 p9 in line lap 431 the 78 spins in front of ryan p8 yellow is out luke - we are staying out .... 10-4 kenseth pits making ryan p7 now going green lap 436 p7

hope no yellows I will take a p8 for as much as ryans car isn't that good. I will consider it lucky. lap 480 7.7 behind no pressure out back lap 485 8.9 behind still no pressure but now the 20 car is the next car & has the freshest tires. lap 490 9.6 back & still no pressure but the 20 is coming fast lap 492 the 20 catches ryan lap 495 10.5 behind & the 20 all over his bumper Kenseth trying hard lap 497 looks outside lap 498 inside ryan held him off next corner 20 inside again lap 499 ryan edged ahead of the 20 ryan raced side by side the last couple laps on outside & held onto p8! Woohoo Ryan - if we could have connected the corner we would have something for them bud
Ryan - getting things done with what you have is important too, good job guys
No way he had a top ten car so I am happy with his finish. The 3 had a top 5 so maybe RCR is finally starting to turn the corner
Congrats Ryan on a hard fought finish!
